Mainstream cable dramas enforces fear and stereotypes to shape public view much more than hollywood I'd say, just because more people watch those shows and every single one of them is the same theme. For instance take any cop drama. Th

Interesting, I'll buy this for more AI research. Some people and I are working on Bitcoin Skynet. Basically we are seeing if we can code an independent bot/agent that can support itself through paid hosting with bitcoins, that mak

True, the only reason Putin and China oppose intervention in Syria is because they have already fought civil wars to crush dissent in their own countries and are worried what kinds of precedents may be set if they allow Assad to be overthro

There was a worldwide fallout from the American's setting up 'Free Speech Zones' that all our supposedly free countries tried to imitate to squash dissent. Even with constant stories in the media about how angry the corporate

I see the sparse fourier transform and other tweaks to the FFT creating decentralized p2p systems where video and audio sharing requires little bandwidth. Centralization is doomed, it's just too expensive to maintain now with the entir

Bruce Schneier wrote an article recently on his blog about what a show trial plea bargaining has become. Another problem is the insane US prison system with an exploding reoffender rate. Even National Geographic is considered contraband. Pr

The difference is Nixon did this illegally while Obama cleared everything through those ridiculous secret courts. He has carte blanche to trample on the constitution all he wants

Unchecked power corrupts anybody that uses it. Obama should have closed these secret courts that authorize drone murder and mass spying the moment he took office, now it seems he's been sucked in and corrupted just like anybody else in

Studios have never made so much money. Every trash superhero film is clearing a billion dollars in foreign box office. Chinese had zero interest in Hollywood until recently now they are the #1 film market.

Can always make another digital currency backed by bitcoin for these type of quick payments. No reasons Mpesa cant be backed by bitcoin instead of kenyan shillings

When Bitcoin becomes more stable it will be used on every corner on earth. Right now its too risky, unless you can immediately sell/cash the coins you take on too much risk. You could sell products online in Kenya 24hrs for a set price

Linode customer data breach all over again. Guess the new fraud prize is attacking hosting companies since they aren't encrypting customer data. I try to only use hosts that accept bitcoin, and if they don't accept bitcoin then I buy a prep

The discrimination towards extreme youth is all about money, because they can pay them 1/4 what a senior developer would ask for. They also will probably do a bunch of free overtime and not complain, until they've been there a few years and

Snooping without a warrant is definitely not needed in most criminal cases I've read about. Seems to me law enforcement will just approach these people in person as informants and sell them fake bombs, or get them to talk about importing dr

Yeah right, turn his friend in. You realize they would've jailed him anyways, and his 2 years in prison would've been hell because of snitching.
